The trees are starting to turn and the scent of falling leaves is sneaking into the breeze. Autumn is here and there’s no better time of year to grab a hot drink, meet up with friends and make some memories. Here are a few events around the city this weekend.

The City of Pittsburgh’s so-called “jock tax” is unconstitutional, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court said on Thursday. That means that city officials, who have used it to collect millions of dollars of fees each year from visiting performers and professional athletes, will no longer be able to do so.

It’s been 14 years since they anchored a KDKA-TV newscast together, but Patrice King Brown, who retired in 2011, and Stacy Smith, who hung up his mic in 2021, reunited this summer to record a UPMC Health Plan video podcast, “Medicare for the Record.”

In “First Call” Thursday, the #Steelers may have eyes on some skill position players at a school out west. Plus: We know the officiating crew for the game in Ireland ... the #Pirates could deal a painful blow to the Reds ... and the #Ravens are dealing with another big-time problem.

Indie rock singer-songwriter Lucy Dacus displayed many talents at her Wednesday night concert at the Benedum Center in Downtown Pittsburgh, and setlist composition was definitely one of them. Sometimes concerts can feel both like art and therapy, and Dacus has perfected that balance.

It probably won’t knock Guinness off the list of most popular beers in Ireland, but Renegade is giving Dubliners a taste of Western Pa. this week. New Kensington-based Tortured Souls Brewing collabed with Dublin's Hope Beer to create a brew in celebration of the #Steelers’ game against the Vikings.

The rapture didn’t happen this week, and some seem really upset about that. Others are angry because the #Steelers can’t get off the field on possession downs, and the #Pirates never give Paul Skenes any run support. Let’s discuss it in this week’s “U mad, bro?”

Before the extra-inning fireworks, Skenes became the first qualified pitcher to finish with a sub-2.00 ERA since Justin Verlander (1.75) in 2022. triblive.com/sports/paul-...

The decision to close campuses was grueling, and President Neeli Bendapudi’s raise is “the proverbial twisting of the knife,” Penn State New Kensington professor Steve Evanchec says.

With federal officials threatening to end subsidies that help keep Pa.’s Affordable Care Act (ACA) health insurance exchange premiums low, about 450,000 enrollees stand to see higher costs. If the federal government fails to take action, the enhanced credit will expire Dec. 31.

Late last week, WPXI reporter Nicole Ford posted to Facebook that she’s leaving Channel 11 and broadcast news after her last report on Sept. 26.

This will certainly be a unique week for members of the Pittsburgh Steelers as they prepare for a trip to Dublin and a meeting with the Minnesota Vikings at Croke Park.

When the Pittsburgh Steelers won their first game of the season, one single identifiable trait got them to victory, even though there were plenty of holes elsewhere. The passing game.

By any measure, the 1983-84 season was the worst in the history of the Pittsburgh Penguins. And it was no accident. The roster was constructed with the intent of being awful. And then it was progressively whittled down to something even worse.

“I don’t know if this is representative of the region’s future climate, but we do know the overall pattern in the United States over the last century is warmer temperatures across the country with precipitation decreasing in the west and increasing in the east,” Abbott said.

Tuesday’s “First Call” has some interesting quotes in the wake of the #Steelers-Patriots game. Plus: The Vikings are getting an offensive weapon back in advance of their contest against the Steelers in Ireland ... and the #Pirates could influence the National League playoff picture.
